Thank you Jonathan, and thank you American Building Contractors. We always say it, Jonathan to first timers. The goal is to get on the board. Once you get on the board, then you go for a win, right, But just get that first one out of the out of the way so quickly.

Here's how the game works for Jonathan and people that haven't heard it in the past. In the last five hundred and fourteen games over the last decade or so, I have twelve items. They can be people, places, things, phrases. They all share the same initials, which I will reveal here in a second. I start giving clues. There are six clues per item. It starts vague, it gets a little more specific. It's kind of a riddle. As soon as you figure out who or what I'm describing,

you yell out your name. Your name is your buzzer. If you get it right, you get a point. If you get wrong, you're out for only the remainder of that item. You do have to pronounce the answer correctly, otherwise I'm trying to think of any of the significant rules. That's pretty much it best out a twelve. That's it. That's pretty much it. Also, by the way, Jonathan, this is the most important part. I have a home game version of this. There's five versions.

You can buy them right now at initial game dot com. Oh yeah, Mary, yeah, wedding game. I'm saying that. Yeah, I went on the website seeing it. Oh you did, yeah, Sorry, perfect wedding. I'll trying to find any cool I could get what Yeah, and Jonathan. Version four is in purple don't care. It looks like it's Viking. Don't care. Initials game dot Com. All right, before we play game five fifteen, though one of you gets a crack at guessing the initials

and winning sixty four thousand. Now it's time for the Saint Paul Federal Credit Union Initials jackpot. That's right, sixty four hundred dollars save Saint Paul Federal Credit Union. You're looking to buy a new car. Saved money in your current Carloan to it with Saint Paul Federal Credit Union now for Carl and rates as low as six point two nine percent of ply today at Saint Paul su dot or slash Champion federally insured by the NCUA. So check us out,

Jonathan. It's been hit twice. Our buddy Carl won thirty one thousand, five hundred dollars when he guessed CR. Then Mike guessed TS and won what thirteen thousand, five hundred. So that's been a couple of years ago. It hasn't been hit since, and now we're at an all time record. If they guess both initials in the right spot, they win sixty four thousand, five hundred dollars thanks to our friends at Saint Paul Federal Credit Union.

If you get one letter in the right spot, they'll still give you two hundred and fifty bucks, which is pretty sweet. Hell yeah, it goes at five hundred dollars every single week. Let's see if we can get somebody paid for the first time in a couple of years. Good morning, What is your name and where are you from? Hello? It's Seth from Kemmouth. Sounded like you said Seth, right, Seth, Yeah, Seth from Plymouth, Minnesota. All right, Seth from Plymouth. Seth, you get

a crack at sixty four thousand, five hundred dollars. All you have to do is tell me the right two initials in the right spots in Saint Paul Federal Credit Union will give you that money. What are you guessing? I'm Lewis S and H, S and H. My guess is you're guessing your own initials. Okay, it's worked for Carl. He has on thirty one five sid H not a not a super super rare combo. I like the S. Guess maybe the H is there. We'll see. Seth and Plymouth

is guessing his own initials for a shot at sixty four dollars? Does he have at least one for two point fifty? And is he alive for the jackpipe. Well, I mean for the jackpot. He sounds like he's still alive. I don't want to pay a dead guy. Uh, Seth No, sorrybody else, sorry, d I'm sorry, Seth Man. All right, now we're up to sixty five thousand next week. All right, it's tough. Good luck, Jonathan, it's tough. That's pretty all right.

Not an impossible combo to guest today, to relatively letters one a little bit more than the other. But anyway, we'll see the initials for game five point fifteen p C PC the letter P and then the letter C. All Right, yell at your name. Your name is your buzzer sauce, Marnie, Jonathan, Chris. Here we go Item one of p C. Clue number one. This involves movement. Clue number two. This can involve detailed organization or be spontaneous. Clue number three. It's commonly lasts for hours.

Clue number four. This is usually centered around socializing in a group. Clue number five. This involves visits or stops money. Marnie, crap, that's right, that is a prawl. Don't kick him? Would you please not in him? My favorite I was she tried to high kick your face. She just did crawl. I never heard that. Yeah, definitely, we'll do after we start our business. I was gonna say, not much of

a drinker than Jonathan, and there we go, not at all? All right, right on, alright, ignored, listen, because I'm not gonna go there. Let's just say, investing in anybody in the Power Trip morning always a massive mistake, massive mistake. Yeah, but you got enough money. You don't need ours. We do need Marnie one number two, don't care, don't kick him though. Of PC Clue number one, there is no standard shape for these, but they are mostly rectangular or somewhat cylindrical.

Clue number two. They are used for organization and they hold something hmmmhuck okay, pincushion, pin cushion. Incorrect, So Chris is out for the remainder of number two. We're down to Jonathan Marney and sauce that. Clue number three. These commonly have a zipper or some kind of a closing mechanism. Clue number four. These can be made of plastic, fabric, leather, rubber, and more. Oh I got it, plastic antenna. No, I guess, good guess though. Now it's take a shot we're down to

Marney and sauce. Clue number five. They're commonly used by students money pencil case. Okay, kick sauce, kick sauce for sure this game. I know now all of a sudden or she is stealing your touchdown dance, just killing it, just enhancing it. But notice none of us were concerned when you air kicked sauce in the face and the like, just just do it, just don't. You just have to kick in this vicinity and you'll kick me in the head. Marny, you have to first. All right,

here we go number three of PC. Clue number one, we're rectangular. Clue number two feature holes, grow up, I can't. Clue number three. We're used in data storage, input and processing. Clue number four. These were used sometimes in reward or incentive programs. Clue number five. These were commonly made of stiff paper. Oh, Paul, yep, punch card. That's what. Yeah, those are punch cards. These are three. Those are nuts. Not that one about the first one that was like,

all right, you're close starting to immntally get that one. All right, punch card, Get sauce on the board. Marnie has two sauce has one you got nine ago, you got plenty of time, plenty of time, tough game, Hawk and Jonathan yet to score, but nine to go. Here's number four of PC. Clue number one all almost exclusively used metaphorically. Clue number two. This is a phrase that originates from the animal Kingdom.

Clue number three. This is often considered unnecessary, unnecessary, or somewhat petty. Clue number four. This could involve a rival. Clue number five. This can involve flaunting, boasting, or bragging. Final you can't go back over the the nope, can't redo them a final clue Clue number six. Trying to outdo someone and claim superiority or dominant is often playfully called getting into one of these. Paul four three one, Hawk was second and then Jonathan.

You can ring in and you can be wrong, So make sure make sure you ring in your name. Because Chris, so even though sauces I should have explained this part of the real view. So when Sauce rang in, he gets five seconds. So even though he his five seconds weren't up, Chris rang in and kind of got in line. So you could have said, Jonathan and kind of like put your spot in line. If you had it, so just I should have explained it to you, even though

yeah, you got plenty of time. This scene contest was that even if somebody rings in, say Jonathan, and you just get your spot in line. Essentially, all right, Martie has two, Hawk has one, Sauce has on. Here's number five of PC clue number one. These can be made Clue number two. The first one was made March tenth, eighteen seventy six. Clue number three involves a conversation. Clue number four requires a connection. Jazi, Yeah, phone call ye there, take Josh Mattellas and going

on, I'm a high kick. That's just a phone high We go there, we go. All all right, you've immediately topped Brian O'Neill and Josh mettelis those guys. That's that's all right. Now he deserves front row seats at the Wolves game next Friday. Alright, phone call against Jonathan Bernard on the board and everybody has a point. So now again, now you go for the whim. Marny has two, everybody else has one. Here's number six of PC clue number one. This is an act. Clue number two.

This can be decided. Clue number three This is considered formal and serious. Mhm Hawk, yep, pressing charges. That's right, wow, press charges. Pressing charges absolutely the right answer. Press charges. All right, very good, All right, it's half time and we have Hawk with two, Marnie with two. I think Bernard has one sauce. You have one six items to go halfway through. Here's number seven of PC Clue number one as a connection to violations. Clue number two. This involves a digital display.

Clue number three. After trials and testing, this debuted in a sense in two thoy and twenty three. Clue number four. This is involved in pacing. Clue number five. This is found in the Sports World. Hot yep, pitch clock. Yeah, that's a nice please saw me please sell y'all. Saw me round in my mouth to say it, right, okay, all right, just see me saying I was about okay, I'm that's not gonna do. I'm going my good, no, going my good. Now you can't like you had it? Yeah, I just didn't want to

see it's two times in the row, this last one. I just like they want to the piston concest. I literally was like, yeah, there's no ways many pisson contents. He says Pisson contents and it's right. Say let's all right, I got you. That's why I'm not holding back anymore. I'm done the first time. Now you get the pacing down, you're gonna take a swing. You're free running. Hawk has three, Money has two, Marty, you have the first two? Have you played since?

Uh? Sauce has one? Jonathan has one. Here is number eight of PC with five to go. Clue number one minimize the risk of injury. Clue number two. These are used for security or safety concerns. Clue number three involves materials such as foam, rubber. Clue number four this is an enclosure. Clue number five. Hawk, that's a sell. Chris has got it today. Sell. That's a tough one. Just hurt yourself doing that. Just pulled my glue. To be fair, it was a pretty low

kick. I like that. We have a professional athlete that says I haven't stretched. I probably shouldn't hide kicks, and Chris hadn't stretched in two decades and pulled a glue. See sorry, all right, before to go, everybody's still mathematically in this. But Chris now starting to pull away. Chris, you had four. It's a tough one. Hawk has four. Marnie you have two, Jonathan has one, Sauce has one. Four items left. Here's number nine of PC. Clue number one seen near a field.

Clue number two maintains order. Clue number three leads. Clue number four is involved in safety and other various procedures. Clue number five. This appears in front and clue clue number six not by one of the competitors, but this is driven Paul five money private Chauffeur Martie, you were a second cars. That's a peace car. Celebrate before the session kicked, before she got it right, random the quarterback got away. That's actually funny though you do that.

That'd be cool if you pull it off. That's a good one man. That would be next time back. Actually, yeah, all right, so you give me ideas, more more ideas, slow quarterback, and you have time to do that. And then second, well you doing and they don't. You're still gonna get them regardless. You just don't care where he's losing his mind, all right, all right, just do a SAX celebration

to nothing. Chris has full all right, Marty has three, Saustin, Jonathan, you need the last three to force a type of here, so you're not mathematically out yet. Yeah, Hawk has four, Marnie has three. Here's number ten of PC. Clue number one are flat, Clue number two come in a variety of colors. Clue number three are circular. Clue number four often stacked. What Clue number five often made of clay? Fine clue clue number six. These come in a variety of denominations and are eventually

placed in a pot. Paul ye or three pretty coin? Everybody else? Five or three? Two? One? Sauce, What do I put into a pot and then lose? Wow? Poker ship? Okay, flat circular made out of denominations and put into a pot. Those are polar ship I get nobody got poker. I'm not good at it. Any PC is strong, tough one. All right, But you're on the board, all right, Sauce and Jonathan, you're mathematically out for the playing your absolute brag right

now. We're going at it right now. Actually, yeah, exactly, because now Chris needs your help. Hawk, you have four, which gives you a one point lead over Marnie with two to go. So if you get either number eleven or twelve you are victorious. So Marnie, you're looking to stop Chris. Here's not eleven with Chris going for the win. Number eleven of PC. Clue number one has been established. Clue number two. This involves the past, Jay j go for it. Personal credit. Okay,

involves the past. Gotcha, credit could be established. I see where you're going with that. All right, Jonathan Grenard out for the rest of number eleven. Yeah, but I'm not ringing it. Yeah, you can pass, all right. Clue number three. This actually makes sense a little bit too. Clue number three connected to coverage. Clue number four used to lead to denials. Clue number five. This involves health. Oh h.

Clue Clue number six. These are ailments, issues or diseases that were uh yes, yep uh previous condition Marnie sauce on previous conditions, Marnie, pre existing conditions. Those are pre existing conditions. So close, but pre existing conditions is the correct term. Exist That ties it up. That was tough, pre existing conditions. I'm so bad. I'm not good at this anymore. I would have given Chris the send version. I know, I'm did you not know that this is? It doesn't matter? Alright, So we're

going to have a walk off designing no idea. Marnie and Hawk, you have four john Than and Sauce each have one Hawk. If you get this right, you're the winner. Marty. If you get this right, you're the winner. If Jonathan or Sauce gets it, then we have a heads up time break. Yeah you heard him wrong. With here's number twelve of PC, Marty and Chris going for the win. Clue number one, often considered successful or influential. Clue number two, often in the public eye.

Clue number three, most often in a romantic relationship. Clue number four. This is two people. Jaz Yep, perfect couple. Okay, Jonathan out for the rest of number twelve. Yep, all right, we're down to a Hawk and Marnie going for the wind saw still trying to get in there as well. Number five often excel in business politics. Oh, Paul Pale, jesus, Yes, power couple, Jonathan, you were on the way pass YEA power couple is the ranging saying it? Yeah, Marnie, one

has to win. You realize that, right, Okay, not that job. That was a fine guest. Okay. So here's the situation. We do have a tiebreaker. So Jonathan and sauce. You're out of this one. It's just Marnie and just Chris. Tiebreakers, just three clues between Marnie and uh Hawk. It's a little more to the point. If you ring in and get it wrong, your opponent gets to hear all of the clues, and then after clue three will have five seconds to answer. You don't

have to ring in after clue three if your opponent is already out. Arnie and Hawk, are you ready? I don't know tiebreaker Peace see Marnie versus Chris. Here we go. Clue number one. Of great value or importance Clue number two. This could be jewelry, children, or anything considered significant or irreplaceable. Final clue clue number three. This term came from the transporting

of things like art, fragile items, or things of sentimental value. Five four, three two Marney Marnie five or three two one, five or three two one? Anybody in the room know it, not Paul Chargian. If something's fragile and it's shipped, what is it called? It's it's please be careful. That's precious cargo. That the terms precious cargo. That's a tough one. Folks considered well no, they wanted, they wanted to get rid of you. Okay, precious cargo. But he gets it. So we're

down to the final one. Here's tiebreaker to Marnie and Chris. Here we go, Marnie and Chris. Tiebreaker two. Clue number one made of stainless steel or aluminum. These are often found in kitchens. Clue number two used to make food quickly by raising the boiling point of water. Last one Clue number three. These have a pan, a lid, and a gasket or are also metaphora used to described a highly stressful or intense situation with urgency five or three. Two. Oh my god, yeah, oh my god.

Nice job, Marr. I was a second away from going. You're gonna have to give me two minutes to come with a third timee breaker. Pressure cooker. Geez, wow, that was a pressure cooker, Martins. Last second, It just the light bulb went up over your head. Nice job, mar how'd you get there? Chris is devastated, a self deprecation and how do you not know? Christ? Do not know that he ripped his

glut doing the kick. He's a devastating day for Chris. Not Those are tough time breakers all I could see everyone in the room though, looking hell, so I knew it was all right. Mary in a walk, marrens, what happens now that you've won the game five fifteen? Well, now that I've won, please tweet me and tag great Clips today. Through the end of Sunday, one lucky winner is going to get one full year of free haircuts from Great Clips. That's awesome. I'm going there today. How

come I don't get free haircuts trim time? It's trim time. Yeah, it's the best thing ever. The gall that cuts my hair. I said this all the time about every fourth right, because I don't go to the same Gallaxi's rotates about every fourth time I get this gallon. All she does is talk about how her son's disappointment, and I, Mom, cuts your hair. Love it. I can't wait to hear what she's going to complain about. It's the best. Well my son did this again. I'm like,

oh God, please make this haircut last forty five minutes. I can't wait to hear everything. Saucer hands all right, so let's talk stock. Let's get a quick let's get a quick preview out of Marni Gelller. Game one tomorrow, Nuggets and Wolves, six o'clock right here on the fan. That's a quick transition. I had Police Chief in my head the full time. I couldn't shake it. Nobody cares. I think this is going to

be an awesome series, I said at the start. I feel like it has a six or seven game potential to it because these teams match up so well. There's going to be much more strategy and chess playing in this series. I am so excited to see what Anthony Edwards does because he rose throughout the regular season. I thought he hit a whole nother gear in the Phoenix series, and I feel like he's got more gears to go. And the Chris Finch with his knee injury or his knee surgery heading out to Denver hopefully

if he gets cleared this morning today. Just fascinating to watch how the coaching works with him and through the assistance, and I just I cannot wait for this series to start. I am so excited. New Viking Jonathan Grenard, you have a Georgia connection to Aunt Edwards. You're you're an ant fan. What do you see Nuggets and Wolves Game one? Yeah? I kind of hit off what she said, I mean, I think it's six to seven series for sure, but I think Minnesota is definitely the only team in my

eyes that definitely can go and beat these guys. Honestly. I mean, like she said, it's hitting another gear that it's no one's seen right now. I mean, we've got people comparing them to Jordan. It's like, come on, like, I mean, you have literally the best player in this playoff right now. And I think with Kat and Rudy Gobert, you know, being those twin towers down low to make it uncomfortable for the joker.

I mean, he's still going to get his regardless, but at the end of the day, I just think it's about limiting the other guys so that way his impact is in as much. So I see them taking it, taking the w on an aspect, So I'm looking forward to it. Are you familiar with the Vikings Ring of Honor? I am. Do you want to be on there someday? Come on? Would the guy behind you at some point is going to be on there? There's Runway, there's Chack

greenway back. There's gonna make it at some point, five to come on, five to Yeah, for sure, definitely, look at what did you you were five to? Yeah, it was it was taking it. I wouldn't say that they initially said it, but I think joh Ward will be wearing that. Yeah, he's got to come on. Yeah, I thought they were tired that a couple of years. She said something like that along the line. I think it wasn't bad for me yet because I had it in college before, so I was like, you know, it wasn't It

wasn't too bad to go back to it. But uh, yeah, five too. Definitely, I was gonna look good regardless. Go buy that thing from him. Yeah, listen, I said, hung with the waff House. Huh, priss whole.
